Are you playing to win or are you playing not to lose?
Sunday, October 29th, 2023
Your mindset influences your behavior. Your collective behaviors influence your outcomes. When you are playing to win, you are focused on achieving your goals and objectives. You are willing to take risks and put in the hard work necessary to succeed. You are also more likely to be creative and innovative in your approach. It is important to note that there is a difference between playing to win and being reckless. When you are playing to win, you are still taking calculated risks. You are also willing to learn from your mistakes. Conversely, when you are playing not to lose, you are focused on avoiding mistakes and protecting yourself from failure. You may be more cautious and risk-averse. As a result, you may miss out on opportunities to grow and succeed. Take the time to identify your mindset and approach to life.
Below, I offer some recommended resources to assist you with the question of the week. I’ll post my reflection before the end of the week on YouTube .?
